Thank you gelotron for the clarification.

Is there an official POV channel where to be on the lookout for such information (the HC released) like Twitter, blog, etc?

Thanks

I´m already following him on Twitter so i´ll wait for good news there, and of course, here in the forums.

Gracias.

There are 2 models, with and without. You will find out if yours has 3g and GPS if you have a placeholder for a SIM (top, rear) :unsure:

yes I have the placeholder and I remove the cover and I see connectors for a SIM card, your tablet has 512mb of internal space and 512mb of RAM?

thanks for your reply

it works really good and is a WIP to preview how HC goes on out tablet, it has a couple of issues like camera not working and some apps; is a beta

but very promising.

if you need your tablet for daily usage is not recommended, but if you are curious and like to play, that is for :unsure:

The SIM slot does not mean that the 3G module is installed as well.

When you look on SIM3g.jpgfrom the thread Hardware pictures PoV (Vega) and Smartbook 360 WITH UMTS (should be retrofit in VEGA) you can see that the SIM module and the 3G module are 2 different parts. It seems some POV mobii have the SIM card reader, but no 3G module installed. As far as I know you can only find out by opening your tablet (warranty gone!!!!)

if no 3G module is installed no menu with settings will be displayed?

not a miracle that gps signal is so poor if that in bottomleft corner is gps antenna

Yes, thats the "AUX" = GPS antenna. Thinking about to replace it with a better antenna.
